Volunteer

Your greatness is not what you have, but what you give.

Being a museum volunteer is a great way to give back to the community.

The museum is looking for involvement of people with a wide range of skills, knowledge, and expertise. We will work with each individual to match their attributes and their availability to museum activities and needs.

The work is varied and can include activities such as participation in the current museum programs or assisting with research and clerical activities.

If you would like to volunteer, please call the museum at 403.948.6685 during regular museum operational hours to arrange an appointment with the volunteer coordinator.

All volunteer opportunities will be posted on the museum's main bulletin board and on the museum's website under Volunteer Opportunities as they become available.
